The Field Guide to Collaborative Care & Collaborative Care Toolkit

Format(s): Guide

The Field Guide to Collaborative Care & Collaborative Care Toolkit is a useful resource for healthcare teams that are hoping to implement collaborative care in practice. The Field Guide provides a step-by-step guide to prepare, activate, deepen, and sustain interprofessional care in the workplace and the Toolkit includes three sets of resources to help facilitate this process.

The three resources included in the toolkit include the Collaborative Care TEAMFINDER (CCTF), Collaborative Care Activation Inventory (CCAI), and Collaborative Care Resource Inventory (CCRI). The CCTF is a self-assessment tool for care teams to recognize their patients, settings, and team roles & connections. The CCAI is a self-assessment tool for care teams to recognize and strengthen the characteristics of the work environment that help collaborative care emerge. The CCRI is a discussion tool for care teams to recognize different contextual resources that are useful in the collaborative care environment.
